The flexible flat clothings, manufactured with utmost accuracy substantially influence the carding quality. Burr-free flat clothings, ground straight with utmost precision are imperative to achieve best possible carding results. For this reason, GRAF has developed the flat-grinding machine DSM 20 and DSM 20/1, which allows for all spinning mills to grind and resharpen the flat-tops economically and efficiently with the precision required. Number of strokes of slides 50 / min Gear motor rating 0,18 kW Weight DSM 20 420 kg ● Precisely straight flat clothings following initial equalising (entire set within a height tolerance of 0,05 mm or less) ● There is the choice to have the DSM 20 or DSM 20/1 grinding roller equipped with either ceramic grinding rings or else an emery grinding fillet ● We recommend the ceramic grinding roller for the initial equalising provided the subsequent resharpening is carried out with a DSW on the card ● The ceramic grinding roller allows the socalled heel grinding, i.e. significantly less abrasion of the tooth points at the time of initial equalising leading to extended life time ● In cases where the resharpening of the flat clothings on the card is not possible we recommend the DSM 20 and DSM 20/1 to be equipped with the emery fillet grinding roller

STEM CELLS AND CEREBRAL PALSY Cerebral palsy (CP) is an umbrella term which includes several forms and levels of nonprogressive brain-related injury, which cause limitations in muscle control, movement and mobility (known as neuromotor impairment) and other symptoms that lead to physical disability. CP is caused by many factors, and can include infection before birth, premature birth and lack of oxygen around the time of birth. It is thought that the major common feature in CP is a lack of blood and oxygen to the brain during fetal development and/or delivery, known as a hypoxic-ischemic insult. The cells most vulnerable to this hypoxic-ischemic insult are oligodendrocytes, the support cells that wrap nerve cells (or neurons) with a protective white fat called myelin, hence the term white matter of the brain. Because of this myelin, neurons can send electrical signals efficiently throughout the body. Once oligodendrocytes die, the neurons are no longer protected and they eventually die. If myelin could be replaced before neurons die, neurons could be spared and motor impairments could be lessened. For this reason, scientists are investigating whether lost oligodendrocytes can be replaced with stem cells. Stem cells are unspecialized cells which can become specialized cells such as brain cells, heart cells or muscle cells. The process of developing into a specialized cell is known as differentiation. Stem cells can also multiply over and over again, a process known as proliferation. During the process of proliferation the stem cell either remains unspecialized or, under the right condition, can become a specialized cell such as a brain cell. Replacing neurons themselves would be like trying to rewire a giant switchboard with tens of thousands of ports but no labels, where improper connections could lead to pain. It is for this reason that the aim of many cell transplantation strategies now being tested is to replace lost oligodendrocytes rather than to make and successfully connect new neurons. Recent decades have seen advances in our knowledge of how to study and use stem cells. It is expected we will develop ways to transplant stem cells into damaged tissues to treat and cure injury and diseases like CP. From Mice to Humans...

Reviews for Greek Pasta and Beef(11)
Sort By :
We did not like this recipe. I found the cinnamon and nutmeg to be a little aggressive.
I've been making this recipe for years. Everyone seems to love it. Since trying the original recipe I do one thing differently. I use a 15 oz can of tomato sauce and no water. I think that it gives it more flavor. Also sometimes I'll mix in some Romano cheese with the Parmesan
This dish sounded promising, but ended up being VERY bland. It was far too much work for too little flavor. Will not make again.
I made this as directed and both my husband and I liked it. My kids however, did not. But they are pretty picky.
We apologize for an error with the amount of butter in the sauce. It should be 1/4 cup (not 1 cup). It will be corrected here soon. With the change, the fat grams per serving will be reduced to 13 g.

Thread: What are your middle names?
June 11th, 2013 12:29 PM #1
What are your middle names?
Are they important for you? Do you like them? Do you find your fn + mn a good combo? I'm just curious!
My middle - and my Jewish name at the same time - is Yael. I love the sound but I'm not a big fan of this goat-meaning . And unfortunately it doesn't make a good combo with my first name at all - they are from different cultures, fn is feminine and classic, mn unisex and spunky. My own fn / mn set is a kind of compromise between my mum and dad rather than good sounding set.
And your?

My name is Sarah Catherine. My mom wanted Catherine to be my first name, but my dad didn't like it, so they compromised. They also picked it for my patron saint to be St. Catherine of Siena. I really genuinely love my name! Sarah means lady princess, and I think it's a pretty but solid name. The only thing I'm not too hip on about it is that it's really popular in my age group (there are seven Sarahs in my grade alone and three of us are all Sarah Catherines!). But overall I LOVE my name-wouldn't trade it ever!!Susannah ~ Marigold ~ Katharine ~ Violet ~ Annemarie ~ Thalia ~ Fiona ~ Juliet ~ Lucy ~ Elisabeth ~ Madeline ~ Primrose ~ Molly ~ Sophia ~William ~ Caspian ~ Timothy ~ Peter ~ Roland ~ Arthur ~ Percy ~ Elliot ~ Llewellyn ~ Nico ~ John Paul ~ Finn ~ Benedict ~ Faramir

Daniel Patrick Pugh (born May 15, 1956), professionally known as Dan Patrick, is an American sportscaster, radio personality, and actor from Mason, Ohio. He currently hosts The Dan Patrick Show which is broadcast on radio on Premiere Radio Networks, and on television on The 101 Network, co-hosts NBC's Football Night in America, and serves as a senior writer for Sports Illustrated. He previously worked (and is perhaps best known) for ESPN for 17 years, where he often anchored the weeknight and Sunday 11 PM edition of SportsCenter. He attended the University of Dayton in Dayton, Ohio. His brother, Bill Pugh, is a longtime sports radio executive, and is currently the head of programming at Clear Channel San Diego.
Patrick was a basketball player in high school at William Mason High School, becoming an Ohio all-state selection his senior year. He attended Eastern Kentucky University on a basketball scholarship for two years before transferring to the University of Dayton, where he majored in broadcast journalism.
Before working with ESPN, Patrick was known by his real name, Dan Pugh, as an on-air personality with the album rock-formatted WTUE in Dayton, Ohio (1979–1983). Patrick was then a sports reporter for CNN (1983–89), where his assignments included the World Series, NBA Finals and Winter Olympics. From 1989–1995 Patrick did a daily sports segment for Bob and Brian, a syndicated Wisconsin-area morning show, and in the early 90s he did sports updates for the Columbus, Ohio, Rock Station WLVQ and appeared on the morning show "Wags and Elliot."

During the Caesarean phase of Paul's Palestinian "ministry in chains," Luke highlights a persistent Jewish opposition that hopes to capitalize on the moral weaknesses of Roman governors. Still, humanly speaking, Roman law continues to be Paul's final line of protection. The innocence of Paul and his gospel before the state and the Jewish religion neutralizes the objections of Christianity's enemies. Theophilus and his peers may in all good conscience embrace a gospel that neither despises its roots nor threatens public order. Paul again uses his defenses as an occasion for powerful witness. The Spirit's work is evident, though no positive decisions are made.

IT would have been easy for Knights coach Wayne Bennett to react to the team's mid-season five-game losing streak by cancelling the players' week off and flogging them at training.
The last of those five losses was inflicted by the Raiders at Hunter Stadium on June 9, and the players were booed off the field by their own fans after a 32-16 defeat.
The Knights had a bye after that game and a 16-day break before their next assignment, against a Tigers team who had strung seven wins together.
Bennett allowed the players to go their separate ways for a week to recharge.
When they clocked back on a week before the Wests Tigers match, they had a spring in their step and responded with four wins from their past five games.
Newcastle's past two victories have been against 2011 grand finalists Manly and the Warriors in successive weeks, and tomorrow they will chase their first winning hat-trick in a year against the team who inadvertently kick-started their resurgence.
The Knights trailed the Warriors 18-0 after 16 minutes at Mt Smart Stadium last Saturday but rallied to win 24-19 to join the Warriors, Raiders, Titans and Dragons on 20 points – one win adrift of the eighth-placed Tigers.
''We've just got back to having fun at training, and if you turn up here every day, you see a lot of smiles on the blokes' faces and we're just enjoying our footy,'' playmaker Jarrod Mullen said in the lead-up to Newcastle's game against the Raiders at Canberra Stadium tomorrow.
''Even though we were against the ropes at the weekend, we just got back to playing simple and just enjoying ourselves and I think it showed out there.
''It was getting to be a bit of a grind there at one stage, but we're playing a lot more games at training and it's helped in the games.''
Mullen said it was Bennett's idea to lighten the load at training and the players – having adapted to his methods and mindset – embraced the change in mood.
''We were probably treading on eggshells and didn't really know how to take him early on, but now everyone knows what the go is with the team and what we've got to do every week and it's been working,'' Mullen said of the seven-time premiership-winning mentor.
''He's always been mellow. He just puts a lot of ownership on the players.
''He gives us a bit of leniency towards a lot of stuff, and plenty of rest and stuff like that, but when it's time to train it's time to dig in and that's what we've been doing.''
Mullen said the April arrival of Willie Mason, whose larger-than-life personality and infectious sense of humour, helped break the ice.
''He's been tremendous, not only on the field but off the field for us,'' Mullen said.
''He's always having a joke with the boys, and I think he's really brought our pack together.''
After struggling to compete in most games in the first two-thirds of the season, Mullen said Newcastle's improved ball control was another key to their recent success.
According to NRL Stats, their completion rates in their past four wins were 78per cent (Warriors), 81per cent (Sea Eagles), 83per cent (Eels) and 89per cent (Tigers).
''At the point there where we lost four or five in a row, we were dropping the ball eight or nine times inside our 50, and if you keep doing that against any side, they're going to put points and pressure on you,'' Mullen said.
''There's no secret to it. You complete your sets and put pressure on the opposition, you take the pressure off you.
''It's just a change in attitude. We're treating that ball like gold. We're holding the ball, getting to our kick and putting the pressure on the opposition. Nothing's changed too much, just the mentality of the team.''
Bennett named an 18-man squad but is expected to retain the same 17 he used against the Warriors, meaning back-rower Marvin Filipo would be omitted.
Former Knights prop Dane Tilse was not named for Canberra but could be included tomorrow.

It's hairy like a bee, hovers and hums, and has a scary looking spike at one end! The large bee-fly is making its springtime appearance in parts of the UK and causing curiosity at the Natural History Museum's Identification and Advisory Service (IAS).
People have seen the strange looking creatures darting around flowerbeds and are wondering what they are and if they sting.
'One of the first signs of spring for the Identification and Advisory Service is a wave of intriguing descriptions of a mysterious garden visitor,' says Hannah Cornish, identification and advisory officer in the IAS.
They may look like a cross between a bee and a giant mosquito, but these insects are a type of fly called a bee-fly, in the family Bombyliidae. Flies have only a single pair of functional wings, whereas bees have 2 pairs.
The large bee-fly, Bombylius major, has a long, slender tongue called a proboscis, which looks frightening to some. But bee-flies are harmless to humans. They do not bite or spread disease and their proboscis is for reaching flower nectar to feed on.
On warm sunny days, keep a look out as you may see the small furry insects darting and hovering around low growing flowers like primrose, bugle or violet.

Bee-flies hum and hover in front of flowers like bees. Unlike bees, however, when they feed they perch themselves on the flower with delicate long legs.
Bee-flies are increasingly common in gardens and towns. There are 9 species in the UK and the one that you are most likely to see now is the large bee-fly, Bombylius major. It has a strong dark mark across the front half of its wings.
The wings are a good way to tell the difference between species. If you spot a bee-fly with a spotty wing edge, it is likely to be the rarer dotted bee-fly Bombylius discolor.
The adults of other bee-fly species appear later in the summer. For example the adults of the tiny Phthiria pulicaria, which are widespread on sandy coastal areas around Britain, are seen from June to August.
Other than B. major and P. pulicaria, most of the other bee-flies are rare and two, B. discolour and B. minor, have UK Biodiversity Action Plans to try and help protect them.
Bee-flies may be harmless to humans but they are not so with other insects. Adults fly close to the ground searching for nests of solitary bees, wasps and beetles.
When they find one, they hover near the nest entrance and dip their abdomen into the surface of the soil to lay their eggs. The hatched larvae eats (parasitises) the bee, wasp or beetle larvae.
The rare species B. canescens has an interesting way of getting its eggs into nests. Museum fly expert Erica McAllister, who writes a blog about her work at the Museum, explains.
'What I love about this species is that the females have been observed ovipositing (laying their eggs) by flicking their egg over or into burrows of bees with their legs! Wouldn't that be a sight!'
Very little is known about the ecology of bee-flies. There have not been many recent studies and a lot of information about them is anecdotal, says Erica. 'Due to the rarity of many of the species things such as mating, hosts, flower-feeding, and life cycle development are poorly, if at all, known.'
Last year a possible new bee-fly arrival in the UK was reported. A member of the public posted an image on the iSpot identification forum and it was identified as the European species Systoechus ctenopterus by a bee-fly expert.
The adult was in very good condition. Migrant species to the UK will often look more dishevelled from being blown in, or accidentally transported in, from outside the UK. So this suggests the bee-fly emerged in the UK and that there could be a breeding population.
The Museum's NaturePlus identification forum is a good place to get help identifying bee-flies as you can post photos you have taken and experts will post replies.
Also in NaturePlus is the Curator of Diptera's blog by Erica McAllister. She has posted photos of the 9 species, and the newly arrived species, that occur in the UK.

Washington, D.C. - Speaker Nancy Pelosi was honored with the Excellence in Leadership Award from the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF) at their 8th Annual Washington, D.C. Awards Dinner tonight, Wednesday, February 28th at the Capital Hilton. Below are the Speaker's remarks upon receiving the award:
'Thank you, President John Trasviña for that kind introduction. You should all know that John is a San Franciscan, my constituent, and therefore my boss. John - thank you for your hard work and the hard work of MALDEF for a more just and fair America.
'I am truly honored to receive the Excellence in Leadership Award from MALDEF.
'But I came here tonight to commend you for your leadership.
'For more than 40 years, in working to ensure fair treatment and equal rights for Latinos, your efforts and advocacy have given meaning to our Constitution and to the vision of our Founders.
'But your victories are not just victories for Latinos, they are victories for all Americans. You are bringing our nation closer to the ideals of equality and opportunity that are both our heritage and our hope.
'We are all indebted to MALDEF for taking the lead in the case GI Forum versus Perry. Thanks to your efforts, the United States Supreme Court held last June that Tom DeLay's Texas redistricting plan diluted Latino voting rights in violation of the Voting Rights Act.
'The effects of your efforts were rewarded in December. The Hispanic voters of Texas's 23rd congressional district were able to choose the candidate of their choice! And now we once again call our friend Ciro Rodriguez, congressman. Thank you!
'The legacy of the Voting Rights Act is our continuing obligation to create a society that is more just, more fair, more equal. Last year, under the leadership of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, Democrats worked hard to make sure that its reauthorization included 'section 203' - language assistance in voting to millions of American citizens. We beat back elements in Congress that sought to end language assistance. House Democrats understand that any diminishing of language assistance is a diminishment of our American Democracy.
'In the first 100 hours of the 110th Congress, House Democrats were thinking of you. We were working to make America's Latino families more economically secure, by raising the minimum wage, lowering prescription drug prices, and making college more affordable.
'I salute the work of our esteemed Congressional Hispanic Caucus in helping to pass these bills with the broad bipartisan support they deserve.
'But our work has just begun. A key priority for you and for the Congress this year is comprehensive immigration reform. I salute MALDEF's work to create a national, humane, and consistent immigration policy. I salute the leadership of Senator Specter, as well as Congressman Gutierrez and others in the House, for getting the ball rolling on this last year.
'Our priorities on immigration reform are clear.
'First, we must immediately regularize the status of the 12 million undocumented immigrants now in the U.S. Hard-working men and women should not live in fear of a knock on the door that will suddenly separate them from their loved ones. They should not be afraid to ask their boss for a raise or safer working conditions.
'Second, we need to establish a path to citizenship that is fair and predictable. It may be a path of many steps, but the endpoint must be clear and attainable.
'Third, we need to end the terrible backlogs in family unification. No longer should husbands and wives and parents and children be forced to be apart for years and years.
'Democrats take seriously our first responsibility to the American people: to keep them safe. We must secure our borders and enforce our laws, but while also protecting against discrimination and adhering faithfully to the rule of law.
'This is a tall order. But can we do it? You know the answer. Si, se puede! Yes, we can.
'Thank you again MALDEF, President John Trasviña, for this great honor. Buenas noches.'

Capitals, goalie Braden Holtby agree on two-year extension
By Allan Muir
Early-season struggles aside, the Washington Capitals believe that Braden Holtby can be their goalie of the future. And they're giving him two years to prove it.
The team announced early Monday afternoon that it had agreed on an extension with last spring's playoff hero. Holtby, who was scheduled to become a restricted free agent this summer, will make $1.7 million in 2013-14 and $2 million in 2014-15. (Good on the Caps for not playing coy and simply giving the salary figures in their press release.)
This feels like a smart move by Washington GM George McPhee and a reasonable one by the 23-year-old Holtby. McPhee is taking a cautious approach by limiting the term to two years. If Holtby doesn't progress as the Caps hope, they can cut bait and move on in short order. And if he does develop into the No. 1 stopper they believe he can be, the team will be happy to set up his grandkids with the next deal.
The finances make sense as well. Holtby has played well in his last few starts, going 4-2-0, but he's still largely unproven. This deal slots him in fairly. Of the 35 goalies with NHL contracts for next year, just eight will make less than his $1.7 million, and all of them are backups. Holtby also will account for less than four percent of the team's cap allowance.
Just as important, the deal sets a fairly low bar for Holtby's equally raw partner Michal Neuvirth…if the Capitals decide to keep him, that is. The 24-year-old also is up to become an RFA this summer, so McPhee needs to decide if he wants to stick with the two youngsters or bring in a veteran to challenge/support Holtby. Don't be surprised to hear Neuvirth's name popping up in rumors leading up to the April 3 trade deadline.
From Holtby's perspective, he joins a growing list of players who are signing bridge deals — reasonably valued contracts that take them from their low-salary entry-level pact to their strike-it-rich third agreement. He's not set for life off this one, but next year Holtby nearly triples his current salary of $637,777, and has the motivation to work toward his next deal.
Looks like a winner for both sides.
Moments after announcing the Holtby deal, the Capitals confirmed that they had extended defenseman John Erskine for two years at $3.9 million. A little less excitement involved with that one, but that's the going rate for a veteran blueliner who brings his particular skill set to the table.

Ted Diamond was too fast to get caught last year when customers of his Moodus fencing company say he stole thousands of dollars from them before leaving his business, his family and Connecticut.
Diamond probably wouldn't be sitting in Ventura County jail now, either, if a snail hadn't slid across a fraudlent fencing bid left overnight on a California porch, the mucus trail obscuring his handwritten phone number.
As it is, Diamond faces seven felony charges — two for grand theft and five for obtaining credit by identity theft — and two petty-theft misdemeanors after allegedly using the letterhead of a local fencing company to solicit down payments with unusually low bids. The down payments, at his request, were checks written to him.
Terry Winter lost $475, perhaps the least of the half-dozen or more customers who say they were swindled by Diamond. Her payment was half the cost Diamond quoted her to reface her part of a wrought-iron fence she shares with a neighbor in Moorpark, Calif.
"The neighbor behind me actually had him bid her job," paid him $2,100, and then left a copy of the bid on her porch, says Winter.
Then came nightfall, and the snail.
On the bid sheet, Diamond had crossed-out the cellphone number of the Guardian Fence Co.'s actual owner, and written his own. With Diamond's number smeared by the snail's mucus trail, Winter looked at the letterhead and called the main office.
"It was the weekend," Winter says, "so I left a message and said, 'Hey, I'd like you to bid out the rest of my fence job'."
Guardian Fence Co. did not call back the following Monday (Aug. 13), but Diamond showed up at Winter's house and worked up a bid, and a convincing story.
''[Diamond said] he was going to reface the wrought-iron fencing and do it in the next couple of days," says Winter, "and he was the owner and wrought-iron fencing was his specialty and he's been doing it since he was 16 years old and he has a master's degree in child psychology but fencing is his passion . . . . No."
Two days later, Andre Stikkelman — the actual owner of Guardian Fence Co. — returned Winter's message, saying he could put together a bid on her fence.
"Don't worry," Winter told him, "Teddy already came out Monday."
That's when the snail, the lies and a lot of angry people who lost upward of $10,000 finally caught up with Theodore John Diamond.
Stikkelman, who has owned Guardian Fence for 25 years and runs the family operation in Simi Valley with his wife, Deanna, had known Diamond for maybe five months. For the first two, Stikkelman says, Diamond pestered him for a job after seeing an ad in the local Ventura County Star.
"I wasn't interested," says Stikkelman, "but one day I was in a little bit of a pinch, so I said, 'All right, come over and I'll give you a try'."
When Stikkelman discovered Diamond's scheme, he suddenly found himself trying to salvage his business and reputation.
"People started calling me, saying 'Where's the fence?' And I said, 'What fence? Who are you?' He did this all secretively, behind my back. He made unrealistic deals. And he told them if they wrote [the check] in his name they'd avoid paying taxes. He scammed me pretty good," Stikkelman said.
Readers of The Bottom Line know the story.
In January, TBL followed a complaint by a West Hartford homeowner, Gary Dinowitz, who said Diamond offered a great price for cedar fencing in December before asking for a $2,000 deposit. Dinowitz paid it, saw a work crew the next day dig some holes and remove some old post-and-rail fencing but never saw Diamond or a single cedar-fence panel.
Last summer, a fencing supplier sued Diamond for about $7,000 in unpaid bills. Diamond, an unregistered contractor, was being investigated by the state Department of Consumer Protection and the attorney general's office.

Ford Motor Company (NYSE:F) is the world's fifth largest automobile manufacturer by production volume.[1] The company sells vehicles under the Ford and Lincoln brands.
While Ford's domestic sales have been generally stagnant, Ford's European operations have increased share by producing many critically acclaimed vehicles well known for quality.[2][3] This difference between Ford's domestic and international operations is a result of costly US manufacturing facilities caused by high wages and expensive healthcare and retirement obligations for union labor. Therefore, improving operational efficiency and developing a more fuel efficient product offering are the centerpieces of Ford's turnaround plan. For example, Ford has cut 40,000 jobs in the past three years and closed seven factories in the past five years. [4][5] Meanwhile the company has unveiled plans to bring six of its fuel efficient models (average fuel economy of over 30 mpg) currently sold in Europe to the U.S. market.[6] In addition to answering demand for smaller cars in the short-term, Ford hopes that offering the same lineup of automobiles in all of its international markets will provide considerable economies of scale in the long-term.

Sea turtles have been on Earth for millions of years, but they are in danger of going extinct. The main threat to them is people who kill them for food, according to Dr. Wallace J. Nichols of the California Academy of Sciences and The Ocean Conservancy.
But the latest news may slow turtle hunting: Dr. Nichols and other scientists have found that sea turtles (family Cheloniidae) absorb a lot of pollution from the ocean, including pesticides and heavy metals like mercury and cadmium. These toxins are health hazards for both turtles and humans and can cause permanent damage to their bodies. Sea turtles also carry the bacteria salmonella, which can cause severe diarrhea in people. Research shows that many people get sick and even die from eating sea turtle meat.
If you're from the United States, chances are you haven't had sea turtle on your dinner plate. "My daughter is four, and she thinks eating sea turtles is gross," says Nichols. Besides, all seven species are protected by the United States Endangered Species Act, which makes it illegal to harm or kill these amazing animals. "But there are kids–-and adults—around the world who do still eat them," explains Nichols. "Our first goal was to save turtles; now we want to save people too."
He wants to get the word out to people who still think turtle steaks or soup make good eating. And he wants people to understand a bigger message: that we should protect the oceans. "The health of the ocean, the health of the animals in the ocean, and our own health are all connected. For a long time we didn't really make those connections," explains Nichols. "Now it's clear that a clean ocean is really good for us too because of the food we eat from there."
Fast Facts
- There are seven species of sea turtles.
- Most sea turtles live 15-20 years, and some may live to be 80.
- Their favorite foods include jellyfish, algae, snails, and seaweed.
- Sea turtles live mostly in the water, coming ashore to lay their eggs and return to the water. With people taking over beaches around the world, sea turtles are having a hard time finding safe spots to lay their eggs.
- Many sea turtles die when they get tangled in fishing nets or eat things like plastic bags that probably look like jellyfish to them.

New to Illustrator, coming from CorelDraw background, wanting to notch up a lvele or two. I am trying to make a series of business cards, for some people in the same company, and thought I should make new artboard for each business card, but somehow duplicate common text and graphics on all of them. Is this possible with something lika a Transform dynamic effect?
Yes that's possbile with exactly the effect you named.
Other possiblity: a symbol.
How? Do I position artboards carefully and give absolute values when moving copies so as the replicated copies land exactly right on the other artboards, or is there a possibility to set the effect to dirrectly reffer to a different artboard for a copy and not move the item? I would love something that can be replicated on different artboards, not moved to fixed positions.
A symbol? Can you detail just a bit?
You can create a symbol just by dragging objects into the symbol panel. Then drag out again to place an instance. Double-click to edit the symbol, instances will be updated.
Artboards in Illustrator are just regions that print (or export), no logical units. So, no, you can't use the transform effect to move anything to a specific artboard. You can only position stuff by moving/duplicating it.
Another possbility to achieve what you want would be layers. But you'll have to figure sth. out to output them correctly. This might be done with variables. Only the concept of variables in Illustrator is not very practical.
When planning small-size documents like business cards, you need to consider two kinds of replications:
I don't think I've ever set up a set of business cards using a separate Artboard for one copy of one person's card. Are you sure that it is most expedient for whomever is going to print the cards?
A large printing house or online business card printing service may want one-card press-ready PDFs because they may have automated workflow routines to gang up multiple instances on the press sheet. Or, such houses often provide simple layout templates to show you how to arrange a multi-up business card sheet.
But if you are going to have the cards printed at a local offset printing house, as is commonly done, that local shop probably doesn't have that kind of automation. They will still run the cards mulit-up on a standard size press sheet (e.g.; 8-up on a letter-size sheet), and if you give them a bunch of 1-up layouts, they'll have to either accomplish the multi-up layout by importing your single-card PDFs into layout software themselves, or they'll do it in striping. You can save yourself (or the Customer) money by saving the printing house unnecessary work. It usually makes more sense to gang up eight people's cards on one letter-size artboard, and include trim marks. To do that, use Transform Effect (or Symbol Instances) for the multiple instances of the static elements, and individual textFrames for the changing data; but all on one press-sheet size Artboard.
On the other hand, if you want to be able to re-order cards for each individual on an as-needed basis, it can make more sense to use Transform Effect for the whole card design (not just the fixed graphics) on the same n-up arrangement on a single Artboard, but designate the textFrames that contain the changing data (name, title, phone, etc.) as text Variables. Then, you just enter all the names, phones, etc., as DataSets in the Variables palette. You can then batch-save press-ready PDFs, cycling through the DataSets to generate an n-up sheet for each person.
If fine typographic control (careful kerning, tracking, etc.) is not requred for the changing data (most designers seldom do this), don't overlook the option of building the job as a multi-up layout delivered to the Customer as an enabled PDF. Do the multi-up design containing only the static graphics. Save it as a press-quality PDF. In Acrobat, add form fields for the changing data (name, phone, etc.). Enable the PDF for Adobe Reader. Whenever needed, the Customer can open the PDF in Reader, key in a person's data, save it, and send the PDF for printing. Customers love this, because it can be easily handled by an office clerk, instead of having to go back to a design house (you) for every little niggling text change on something as mundane and subject-to-change as business cards.
You are right, print shop replication would have been my following question. Thanks.
You should ask the press house. I have never delivered business cards as a print ready layout. The different service bureaus always insisted that they do it.
A print shop can help you well. Most of the time, print shops differ from each other. Specific solutions from them are what you need.

Fur flies as animal rights group attacks Sabres over faux coat
By Allan Muir
It's become a popular bit around the NHL. Somebody finds a hideous piece of clothing — an old jacket in Boston, a battered fedora in New York – and it becomes a badge of honor in the dressing room, awarded by the players to a teammate who puts in an honest night's work at the rink.
They do it in Buffalo, too. There, the game's star is honored with a particularly gamey fur coat emblazoned with the team's logo. It's a good gag that promotes team unity.
Except PETA didn't quite see it that way.
The animal-rights organization, infamous for its attention-grabbing stunts, got wind of the bit and fired off a letter to Sabres' owner Terry Pegula asking him to end the practice immediately.
"On the heels of the Buffalo Sabres' decision to fire head coach Lindy Ruff, PETA is calling on the team to earn back the trust of its fan base by doing away with something else: the logo-embroidered fur coat that the team recently started awarding to its "player of the game," PETA Executive Vice President Tracy Reiman wrote in a press release. "There's nothing less sporting and more grotesque than wearing someone else's skin. PETA is telling the Sabres that if they want to move forward and leave the past behind, they need to stop draping their top-scoring players in cruel caveman couture."
Cruel caveman couture. That's some olde world wordsmithery there.
The letter didn't generate much buzz until Buffalo center Steve Ott fired off a couple of tweets earlier today:
You would think for a creditable organization @Peta that the VP would have done its due diligence and not have accused an animal loving….—
Steve Ott (@otterN9NE) March 01, 2013
Team with such inappropriate accusations and realize the coat is Faux from @HM #Sabres #BeatIt—
Steve Ott (@otterN9NE) March 01, 2013
That's right. The fur is fake.
The Sabres Observer did a nice job following up with PETA and got this response:
"We would be thrilled if the fur coat was in fact faux, and if the Sabres would like to continue the player of the game tradition, PETA would be happy to supply the team with a faux-fur coat."
Sounds like the Sabres already have that covered. But mission accomplished on the publicity front, right?

Ernie Els pens deal with IMG
Open champion Ernie Els has signed a deal with management giants IMG, the company which used to handle the career of Tiger Woods.
It is only just over a year ago that the South African left International Sports Management, the stable whose clients include Lee Westwood and Darren Clarke, but he said: "IMG has a global network of offices, loads of experienced and dedicated golf staff operating in every aspect of the game, so really is best equipped to help me achieve everything I want to do on and off the course."
Els was being handled by Pros Inc and his team there are moving to IMG with him.
Guy Kinnings, of IMG, commented: "Ernie has had an amazing career to date and his influence on the game is extraordinary.
"We are delighted to be working with Ernie and his team and know that IMG's offices and staff situated all around the world will be excited to have the opportunity to work with one of golf's most inspiring figures."
Els was scheduled to be in Bermuda this week competing at the PGA Grand Slam of Golf, but he pulled out because of an ankle injury.

A Brazilian mosaic for a Brazilian garden
Roberto Burle Marx mosaic has new home ...
The Naples Botanical Garden reopens this Saturday in a huge way: It will come out of its 17-month hiatus as the second largest developed botanical garden in the state, with 70 developed acres. After its final first-phase gardens are developed, possibly next year, it will likely be the largest.
Yet its beginnings were flower-pot size. A number of people on its first board remember packing up their backyard plants to raffle when they needed to pay a lecture room rental fee.
"We had this free lecture series," recalled Susan Gallagher, one of the members of the original board. "They were to get people interested. And we'd have a plant raffle from things we brought in. There were enough plants so if you bought any tickets at all, you'd go home with a plant."
Win Turner, a landscaper, garden neighbor and volunteer since 1993, remembers organizing lawn-chair luaus to promote the concept, serving from a tent in his own backyard.
"The thing about it is — it wasn't that long ago that they were doing all this," marveled Brian Holley, executive director of the Naples Botanical Garden. He wasn't around for those first meetings in 1993, but acknowledged that small things will always undergird the marvels: Last Friday, garden staff and volunteers were out digging holes for 4,000 little filler plants.
Turner has been one of those digging sunup to sunset during the summer to put those little plants in. His family once owned much of the property that would become the garden at the intersection of Thomasson and Bayshore drives, then known as Kelly Road. There's a tone of relief in Turner's voice when he talks about their original idea, to turn it into a rock pit, before they sold their land for its next potential fate: as a low-density housing development. The first botanical garden board, thanks to a $5 million gift from the late Harvey E. Kapnick, bought it instead, turning its half-formed strip mall into a headquarters from which to plan today's gardens.
It was the land's salvation, Turner asserts.
"This is so much better for it," he declared. "I can't believe it. It's like having a dream come true."
Dreaming big
A number of people who were on the first board of the Naples Botanical Garden and who still volunteer today use Turner's word.
"It's like you're in the middle of a dream," said Connie Alsbrook. "It's hard to believe, when you're standing in the middle of it, and you worked so hard on it."
Alsbrook became one of the founding board members by accident. Her husband, Everett, had joined several other enthusiasts who had organized a meeting in the Collier County Public Library to discuss the concept of a botanical garden. Then he was called out of town on the night of the first meeting.
"After the meeting, they asked anyone who was interested to stay around," she said. "My husband asked me to stay on top of what was happening, so I did."
She became board secretary during the garden's formative years. In fact, the garden's stand of coastal dune scrub, part of the David and Vicky Smith Uplands Preserve, may be there because of Alsbrook's insistence.
"I think I said something like, 'You're going to have to drive a tractor over me to tear that up,'" she admitted. "I grew up in Florida, so I understood that we already had a garden planted there."
Alsbrook calls that scrub, with palmettos, silky sand and high elevation, the Florida equivalent of desert — a terrain that's increasingly rare because it is so easy to develop into housing. Undisturbed, it is an area that is home to sand live oak and gopher tortoises.
But she and many of the other people who got the initial Tropical Mosaic Garden in admitted they needed a change to grow from the 25-foot starter garden.
"It started with people whose passion was plants — people with dirt under our fingernails," recalled Catherine Ware, who joined the board later as secretary. "We got it started but didn't have the skills to take it to the next level."
She credits the success in developing the garden that opens this week to the Kapnick gift that purchased plenty of property, the addition of business-savvy board members and the hiring of Holley, former director of the Cleveland Botanical Garden. Had the board not campaigned to have the money in hand before it built, this would not have been possible, she said. The board did decide to delay completion of two more gardens — the Asian and Florida gardens — after the 2008 stock market fiasco.
"Giving really did dry up," she said. "We had to not scale back our long-term projects, but slow them down a little."
Some of the people who dreamed about his date will not see it, she and other board members pointed out: Robert W. Read, a retired botanist from the Smithsonian Institution, its first chairman, and one of the first advocates for a botanical garden in Naples; Charles Berger, under whose board chairmanship the expansion began in 2008; Wilma Ferguson, its first vice-president, and Beverley McHugh, another earl board members.
Others are still with it, however. Duane Repp, a retired generator builder who was on the board before there was a garden, is retraining as a docent for the expanded area.
"One of the things that struck me at first was that this thing is so huge you'll never be able to walk around it all in one visit," recalled Repp, who remembers feeling momentarily piqued at the idea. "But that's kind of the idea, I realized. You'll want to come back and see other areas of it."
Giving back in a big way
Harvey Kapnick would have been proud of the gardens that are opening Saturday, said his son, Scott Kapnick, a part-time Naples resident for around 30 years now. Scott and Kathleen Kapnick and the Kapnick Foundation followed his lead with their own $10 million gift in 2006 that ensured the development of the garden.
"My father was a huge believer in giving back to the communities where he lived," Scott Kapnick said. "He felt Naples was in need of protecting some of its open spaces, and he saw in this property an opportunity to develop a world-class botanical garden.
"When he passed away, Kathleen and I made the decision to take this on, to see it to the next stage. We're certainly proud of the contribution he made and the vision he had for this garden," he continued. "For me it's (the opening) is going to be emotional to a certain extent."
The elder Kapnick also saw the potential of partnering with Florida Gulf Coast University, his son added. As a result, FGCU is erecting its environmental studies field laboratory/classroom adjacent to the gift shop and administration building. It's expected to open in February, making the garden a destination for researchers and academic events as well as a place for the public to enjoy and appreciate nature.
"I can't overemphasize how beautiful it is. And to have the talents of several first-class landscape architects in one place is incredibly good fortune in creating of the kind of garden this should be," Kapnick said.
"A lot of people either don't understand or underestimate that the garden is a world-class tropical garden," he said. "It's amazing to me we have so many different flowers, plants and trees in such an early stage of development.
"For myself and Kathleen it's one of the most important things we've done in our lives. It's one of those things that goes beyond whatever you're doing now and will be an important, and permanent, part of the future of Naples."
On the Net:
Here is the Web site for Naples Botanical Garden: www.naplesgarden.org
This site offers a sneak preview of the expanded garden and insight into how it won its Intelligent Use of Water Leadership Award: www.rainbird.com/iuow/award.htm
A unique place:
When Naples Botanical Garden reopens officially at 11 a.m. Saturday, it will be a trove of singular features, including:
■ It is one of only two gardens in the world holding every registered cultivar of Plumeria (frangipani) in the world. The International Plumeria Society of America designated the garden, with its tropics-friendly climate, as one of the best places for them to grow.
■ The garden has an uncounted, but vast, collection of heliconia (Bird of Paradise) and a 550-square-foot orchid greenhouse and butterfly house with a substantial diversity of population as well. In the preserve that contains the uplands, the staff has cataloged 300 species of native plants.
■ Its Children's Garden has two crayon-bright tree houses, including one accessible to children in wheelchairs; it can be navigated on upper body strength.
■ The garden's meeting point, a 8- by 17-foot, wildly colorful tile mural, is thought to be the only one in a North American public space from Rorberto Burle Marx, the Brazilian landscape architect and artist whose subtropical public garden designs stand as among the world's best.
Some the garden's one-and-only features won't be so apparent:
■ The garden is LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) certification-ready. The board worked with a firm known nationally for its sustainable architecture, Lake/Flato of San Antonio, Texas, and local general contractor Kraft Construction to recycle more than 75 percent of its construction waste, use more than 20 percent recycled building materials and maximize energy-efficient natural lighting in its design.
■ The expanded garden has already received a national Intelligent Use of Water Leadership Award for its water-saving processes. It will use an 18,000-gallon cistern to collect roof rainwater for irrigation and a parking lot with bioswales to handle runoff and a wide field filtering grasses to slow and scrub the water. Even urinals use a water-free process. A good sneak preview of parts of the garden and an explanation of how the system works is online at www.rainbird.com/iuow/award.htm
■ This garden may be one of the few assembled under the joint efforts of four internationally known landscape architects: Raymond Jungles of Miami, who is here today for a talk with the Naples Garden Club; Colorado-based Herb Schaal, who created its Children's Garden with input from local youngsters; and Bob Truskowski, of Laguna Beach, Calif., who designed the Caribbean Garden. Yet another famous landscaper, Made Wijaya, will design its Asian Garden. Ellin Goetz, the Naples landscape architect whose company has taken on weaving the borders of each garden to the next, has designed the future Florida Garden. Both are scheduled to be completed in 2010.
Big, getting bigger
Naples Botanical Garden will open as the second largest developed botanical garden in the state. When its final two gardens are finished next year, in fact, it will be the largest cultivated garden; Bok Tower in Lake Wales has more property, although much of it is in nature preserve.
83 acres — Fairchild Tropical Botanic Garden, Coral Gables
70 acres — Naples Botanical Garden, Naples; it owns about 160 square acres
61 acres — Bok Tower Gardens Lake Wales; it owns nearly 250 square acres
60 acres —Flamingo Gardens & Wildlife Sanctuary, Davie
15 acres — Harry P. Leu Gardens, Orlando
14 acres — Mounts Botanical Garden, West Palm Beach
9.5 acres — Marie Selby Botanical Gardens, Sarasota

Let the Dodgers over pay for him.... Greinke is good but he isnt worth that kind of cash.
I say Texas gets him if they get Upton deal done. They will let Hamilton walk. Smart move if they pull that off.
I'm not arguing against you, but a lil bit more pressure pitching for the Dodgers in Los Angeles, compared to Anaheim. I think the pressure comment derives from the LA Times (imo one of the worst newpapers at covering sports).

Greinke is gonna benefit from being the clear best pitcher in a thin market. It is what it is.
I wouldn't be surprised if he goes to Texas. In fact, I'm expecting it.
As for anxiety, LA doesn't have harsh media. People don't follow players home and harass them like on the East Coast. Fans come out in record numbers but are laid back--it's the socal lifestyle. He'd be perfectly fine.
Anaheim isn't in LA btw to a previous poster. Only 30 miles apart but completely different worlds. I've lived in both LA and OC. Completely different.

Jawbreakers are the treat that every kid in the the Cul-de-Sac likes and strives to get. The Eds make attempts to obtain them by earning money from their various scams, only to fail most of the time. Apparently, there are hundreds of flavors of Jawbreakers from around the world. Eddy appears to have a specific liking for Japanese jawbreakers, as revealed in "Once Upon an Ed." A jawbreaker costs 5 cents, as revealed in "The Ed-Touchables," but in later episodes, jawbreakers cost 25 cents each, suggesting that the Candy Store raised the price for jawbreakers after the latter episode.
The main reason Ed, Edd, and Eddy perform scams is because of the delicious jawbreakers, but just what is it about those mouthwatering candied spheres (as Edd so aptly described them) that makes them the center of the Ed, Edd n Eddy universe?
First of all, they are candy, and there aren't very many kids who don't go overboard for that. This is especially true in Peach Creek, and of course it's the whole Peach Creek to Jawbreaker ratio that provides the driving force behind many of the show's plots. For example, The Eds want Jawbreakers, but they don't have the cash to buy any. On top of that, it only makes matters worse to see all the other kids enjoying a seemingly endless supply of them. Of course, if that wasn't enough to make Eddy foam with envy, he has to live with the fact that Kevin, who lives next door, has a dad that works at the Jawbreaker Factory, which leads to unlimited jawbreakers for Kevin (and sometimes cash for reselling them).
Another thing about Jawbreakers is possibly their sheer size. The Candy Store only sells jawbreakers in one size, which is about the size of a basketball. They're a mouthful, and when you only have a very limited income, the cheaper it is and the longer it lasts are the main parameters. Why spend your money on a nickel's worth of chocolate that's gone in seconds when you could be slurping jawbreakers all afternoon?
In Ed, Edd n Eddy - The Mis-Edventures, there are many different kinds of jawbreakers, and a jawbreaker costs $1.00. Each one also has a humorous description along with it such as the Japanese jawbreakers "taste like sushi," the Taco Crayon jawbreakers "taste better with hot sauce," and "The Great Nano would approve" if you ate a Sea Cucumber jawbreaker. These are all flavors based around jokes from the show. They are the key to getting 100% of the game finished.
The Jawbreaker Factory
Kevin's Dad works at the Jawbreaker Factory, so Kevin can't resist teasing the Eds with the stash of jawbreakers in his garage. The Eds were unfortunate enough once, that they missed a field trip to the Jawbreaker Factory in the episode "Run Ed Run," and ended up hitting the sky. The Jawbreaker Factory has a neon sign (depicting a tongue licking a jawbreaker) and a security booth in front of the parking lot. Overall, it looks like a ridiculously happy inviting place. This is possibly to emphasize how, to the kids, the place is a utopia. It is not to be confused with The Factory located behind the cul-de-sac, or the Lemon Brook Gag Factory located in Lemon Brook.
- In the first episode ("The Ed-Touchables"), each jawbreaker only cost one nickel, as said by Eddy, however, they later cost a quarter, as mentioned by Edd in "Dawn of the Eds" about the price bring raised.
- There are various flavors and colors of jawbreakers, but the most common color for them is white.
- One Ed, Edd n Eddy fansite is named after this treat, "Jawbreaker Chronicle."
- The Kankers are the only characters who have never interacted with a jawbreaker.

Hi Guys,
I bought an unlocked iPhone from America over 2 years ago with 1.0.2 firmware.
Not sure what method was used to unlock it but it was right at the start of the first launch of iPhone.
I am now tired of not being able to update the firmware and would like to give it a shot.
I have been researching on how to do this and found that due to it being unlocked with 1.0.2 I need to Virginize my iphone.
I have downloaded Ziphone 3.0.
Am I right to use Ziphone to erase 3.9 bootloader and then restore firmware to 1.1.4 by pressing "Prepare for upgrade" then go to iTunes press "shift" whilst clicking on restore and choose file for 1.1.4 firmware.
When restored go to Ziphone and press "Do it all" and it should be unlocked jailbreaked and upgraded 1.1.4 ?
Should I upgrade my iPhone this way or is there a simpler/better way of doing this?
I am very thankful for any help
thanks Vanilth

|Scientific Name:
|Avahi laniger
|Species Authority:
|(Gmelin, 1788)
Common Name/s:
|Red List Category & Criteria:
|Least Concern ver 3.1
|Year Published:
|Date Assessed:
|Andrainarivo, C., Andriaholinirina, V.N., Feistner, A., Felix, T., Ganzhorn, J., Garbutt, N., Golden, C., Konstant, B., Louis Jr., E., Meyers, D., Mittermeier, R.A., Perieras, A., Princee, F., Rabarivola, J.C., Rakotosamimanana, B., Rasamimanana, H., Ratsimbazafy, J., Raveloarinoro, G., Razafimanantsoa, A., Rumpler, Y., Schwitzer, C., Thalmann, U., Wilmé, L. & Wright, P.
|Mittermeier, R.A. & Rylands, A.B. (Primate Red List Authority)
Listed as Listed Concern as the species has a relatively wide distribution, appears to be fairly common and is present in a number of protected areas. It is probably decreasing across its range as a result of habitat loss, but does not currently appear to be threatened.
|Range Description:
|The range of this species is now somewhat unclear in the wake of recent genetic studies that have described several new species of Avahi. The species was formerly considered to range almost the entire length of Madagascar's eastern rain forests from the Tolagnaro region in the extreme south to the Ankarana Massif in the extreme north, although the taxonomic status of the forms in Ankarana and Kalambatritra remained uncertain. However, Andriantompohavana et al. (2007) presented a distribution that shows the species ranging from Mantadia in the south to about Anjanharibe-Sud in the north.
|Range Map:
|Click here to open the map viewer and explore range.
|Fairly common. At the Analamazaotra Special Reserve, estimates of densities reach 72-100 individuals/km² (Ganzhorn 1988).
|Population Trend:
|Habitat and Ecology:
|This species occurs in tropical moist lowland and montane forests, as well as secondary forest formations. Population densities appear higher in secondary growth and disturbed habitats. During the day, they typically sleep in clumps of dense foliage, sometimes fairly close to the ground, where group members huddle together. Single births take place in August and September (see Mittermeier et al. 2008, and references therein).
|Major Threat(s):
|There are no major threats. Localized declines are no doubt taking place from habitat destruction due to logging and slash-and-burn agriculture. Being nocturnal, it is less subject to hunting than many diurnal lemurs, but may be captured opportunistically at its daytime sleeping sites. In Makira and Mananara-Nord, the species is actively hunted by people with spears and slingshots. They are not commonly caught in snares as they don't eat bananas, which are usually used to bait traps, and because they are vertical clingers and leapers and don't venture onto horizontal surfaces.
|Conservation Actions:
|This species is listed on Appendix I of CITES. This species is reported from five national parks (Mananara-Nord, Mantadia, Zahamena, Marojejy, and Masoala), and two special reserves (Ambatovaky, Anjanaharibé-Sud) (Mittermeier et al. 2008).

"We needed to order celebration invitations for a party quickly. We eloped and then spent two weeks in Italy, which didn't leave us much time to get invitations printed, delivered and mailed. Tinyprints did a superb job. I was most impressed that they also supplied envelopes for the square cards that did not require additional postage. I hadn't ordered enough and the next batch arrived just as swiftly as the first. Good job!"
"I also used a black and white picture, I was able to word text my way, very pleased with final product. paper is nice n thick, the white envelopes are thick too. great quality. highly recommend this site to all."
"Product came exactly as advertized and was high quality. Tiny Prints was also wonderful to work with and helped me to customize the back of the invitation. Would definitely order with Tiny Prints again and would recommend this particular item especially. Great experience!"
"I searched for two days for the perfect birthday invitations for my mom's 90th! The celebration is at a Mexican Cantina and the colors of this card were perfect! Her smiling face looked fabulous and so cheerful! Can't wait to mail them!"
"It gives me great pleasure to review the recent 90th birthday card invitations I had printed. The quality of paper, printing and design was amazing all invited guest commented on the invitations and my dear mother had a tear in her eye when she saw the invitations. I thank Tiny Prints sincerely for making mums birthday so very special. I highly recommend Tiny Prints and will continue to do so."


text: Hey guys, like the thread says, haven't read the series yet but it's been sitting on my bookshelf for FAR too long. I usually have some tunes playing in the background while I read comics. Anyone have any recommendations for music to accompany 100 Bullets? Please refrain from inferred spoilers, etc.
